I was born in 1965 In Zimbabwe, and lived there until 2003. My husband, and I moved with our four dogs to Greece, and we lived in a tiny traditional Greek village called Melissohori, just outside the country's second largest city Thessaloniki. In November 2006 we were transferred to Izmir in Turkey, the place we currently call home.

    Hi Brooke

    Thank you for the welcome. I've been with another writing site for nearly 5 years, but I am becoming very disillusioned there, and this site looks good. I'm hoping to get my first story posted today!

    Best wishes
